Bread and Roses

The Key

Lyrics

Marching, marching,
Marching, marching,
Marching.
As we go marching, marching,
Through the beauty of the day,
A thousand kitchens darkened,
A thousand mill-lofts gray
Are touched by all the radiance
That a sudden sun exposes,
Yeah, it is bread we fight for,
Bread and Roses.
As we go marching, marching,
We fight for women and for men –
For they are in the struggle,
Together we will win.
And our lives will not be sweated
For our trail until life closes –
Hey, you, it is bread we fight for,
Bread and Roses,
Bread and Roses.
And our lives will not be sweated
For our trail until life closes.
As we go marching, marching,
Through the beauty of the day…
(A thousand mill-lofts darkened,
A thousand mill-lofts gray)
Are touched by all the radiance
That a sudden sun exposes,
Yeah, it is bread we fight for,
And we are for fight for Roses,
Bread and Roses,
Bread and Roses.
Bread and Roses,
Bread and Roses,
Bread and Roses,
Bread and Roses…
